Have looked for some catnip at pet stores - even the best at Airport Plaza. They didn't know what I was talking about (yaba pua Meo, etc.) I tried growing some - it said catnip on the seed package - but apparently not the right stuff. Neither the cats nor I were impressed. anyone know if there is any in T'land?

For the Pets / Animals / General / Livestock n Agriculture threads maybe better idea, though I know you wanna find it locally. Maybe put duplicate thread out there. But some of these locals who know everything cat n dog related like Neinke may have a lead for you. Maybe.

It's called ตำแยแมว dtum yae maew in Thai. Here's a thread with info of places in Bangkok to buy catnip - none for CM so far that the search reveals, anyway:

Apparently only about 50% of cats are susceptible to its effects.

One of my ex cats treated it with total disdain. (Like every thing else).
